Vancouver. During his four years in 
House of Assembly was most careful 
and hard working representative and 
never lost opportunity for furthering 
material interest and substantial up- 
building of Vancouver City. His course 
in office fully justified the trust re- 
posed in him. Because of his private 
business interests and poor health de- 
clined to again stand for Assembly, al- 
though was elected by convention. The 
Zoo in Stanley Park, which attracts 
thousands of visitors annually, was 
personally started by him, and at his 
own expense and donated to the city.

Hon. Wm. McDougall, one of the Com- 
missioners to England, to treat for the 
surrender of the Territories, to prepare 
in the Parliamentary Library a Precis 
of extant evidence on the Hudson's Bay 
Company's title. Sent to Fort Garry 
same Fall as paymaster to party en- 
gaged in opening up an immigration 
route to Lake of the Woods, and then

JOHN ALEXANDER LOW WADDELL 

"WAHTHHmIm, John Alexander Tiovr, C. 
H., B. A. Sc, IVIa. E., Iili. D., D. H. —

pal Engineer of Trans-Alaska-Siberian 
Ry. Began career as draftsman. Ma- 
rine Department, Ottawa, 1875; engi- 
neer field work, C. P. R., 1876-1877; As- 
sistant Professor of Rational and Tech-

Civil Engineering, Imperial University 
of Japan, 1882-1886; private practice, 
Kansas City since 1887; practicing alone 
1887-1899; as Waddell & Hedrick, 1899- 
1906; present partnership formed 1906. 
As chief engineer of Pacific Short Line 
Bridge Co., designed and supervised 
construction of combined railway and 



highway bridge over Missouri River at 
Sioux City; chief engineer, Omaha 
Bridge & Terminal Ry. Co., designed a 
double track railway and highway 
bridge across the Missouri River at 
East Omaha, 1893. Designed and con- 
structed a highway bridge across the 
Missouri River at Jefferson City, Mo.; 
engineered the Northwestern Elevated, 
Union Loop Elevated, and other elevated 
railway work in Chicago; was consulted 
in the plans for the Boston Elevated 
Ry. ; Engineer on T-shaped railway and 
highway bridge over Eraser River at 
New Westminster; Chief Engineer, Al- 
berta and Great Waterways Ry., and 
was successfully locating line when the 
action of Alberta Government killed the 
project. For the first half of this line 
got far straighter line with much less 
verical variation and at much less ccst 
than anticipated, and for remaining half 
of line, although surveys had not been 
made, indications promised equally fa- 
vorable results. Aided the president, 
Mr. Clarke, in securing concession and 
to raise money for building, having 
made two trips with him to Europe for 
this latter purpose. Built over 200 
bridges on the Vera Cruz & Pacific Ry. 
of Mexico; two lighthouses and stand- 
ard highway bridges for Government of 
Cuba; two arch bridges for New Zea- 
land; most of the bridges on the Kan- 
sas City Southern Ry. and the Tennes- 
see Central Ry. ; large bridge over 
Maumee River, Toledo; Halsteail 
Street Lift Bridge at Chicago; Haw- 
thorne Ave. Lift Bridge, Portland, Ore.; 
a reinforced concrete arch bridge over

principal bridges on Shreveport & Red 
River Valley Ry. : ten large bridges on 
the International & Great Northern Ry. 
in Texas; large bridge over Missouri 
River (having a lifting deck) at Kan- 
sas City; a highway bridge over same 
river at St. Charles, Mo.; a large bridge 
with lift span over the Mississippi 
River for Iowa Central Ry., Keithsburg; 
two reinforced concrete trestles (having 
longest reinforced concrete girders yet 
built) at Tacoma, Wash.; the Granville 
St., The Cambie St., and Westminster 
Ave. bridges over False Creek, Vancou- 
ver, B. C. ; the reconstruction of the 
Fort Leavenworth bridge over the Mis- 
souri River; a large viaduct joining 
Kansas City, Mo., and Kansas City, 
Kan., and crossing the Kaw River; a 
large bridge with lifting deck and lift- 
ing span combined now under construc- 
tion over the Willamette River, Port- 
land, Ore., for the Harriman system; a 
bridge with lift span over the Arkansas 
River at Fort Smith, Ark., and numer- 
ous other constructions of less import- 
ance. 

About the end of 1903 Dr. Waddell 
was retained by the International 
Nickel Co. of New York City, which 
company controls three-quarters of the 
world's total output of nickel, to make 



WHO'S WHO AND WHY 



extensive investigation of the suitability 
of nickel steel for bridgei building. His 
experiments were both elaborate end ex- 
haustive, covering every conceivable 
kind of practical tests, and occupied over 
three years in the making, the total cost 
of the investigation being in the neigh- 
borhood of $50,000. After the investiga- 
tion and the reports were finished, Dr. 
Waddell wrote for the American Society 
of Civil Engineers a long paper describ- 
ing fully the tests and drawing numer- 
ous deductions. This paper is essential- 
ly an economic study of the question of 
"nickel steel for bridges," which was the 
title of his paper. It was published first 
in the "Proceedings" of the Society then 
discussed by a number of prominent en- 
gineers of America and Europe, and final- 
ly the paper and the discussions were 
published together in the Society's 
"Transactions" for 1909. Later, the spe- 
cial committee for the awarding of the 
Norman medal of that year unanimously 
decided to award it to Dr. Waddell's pa- 
per as being the best and most important 
one presented to the Society for that 
year. The practical result of Dr. Wad- 
dell's investigations on "nickel steel for 
bridges" has been the use of that alloy 
for at least three long-span bridges, viz.: 
The Manhattan Bridge, New York; the 
Free Bridge, St. Louis, and the new Que- 
bec Bridge. Dr. Waddell's firm is also 
using the alloy in the moving spans of 
some of their vertical lift bridges in or- 
der to cut down materially the total 
weight to be raised and lowered. Nickel 
steel as a material for building long- 
span bridges has come to stay, and it 
will be used for shorter and still shorter 
spans as time goes on, unless some 
equally good or better and cheaper alloy 
is discovered. 

Dr. Waddell is the author of the fol- 
lowing works: A compilation of 22 of his 
principal professional papers, edited by 
John Lyle Harrington, 1905; "The De- 
signing of Ordinary Iron Highway 
Bridges," published by Wiley & Sons, 
New York, 1884; "A System of Iron Rail- 
road Bridges for Japan," 1885, published 
by the Japanese Government for private 
circulation only; "Civil Engineering Edu- 
cation," published in Engineering News; 
"General Specifications for Highway 
Bridges of Iron & Steel"; "Some Dis- 
puted Points in Railway Bridge Design- 
ing"; "Elevated Railroads"; "De Ponti- 
bus" (Wiley & Sons, 1898); "Specifica- 
tions for Steel Bridges"; "Foundations 
for Important Buildings in the City of 
Mexico"; "Flow Line Bridge at Kansas 
City"; "Engineering Specifications and 
Contracts," a standard work, published 
by Engineering News; "Addresses to En- 
gineering Studc"**'," a compilation of 
forty-four of the best addresses made 
to engineering students by various pro- 
fessors and engineers in the last 25 
years, edited by Dr. J. A. L. Waddell 
and John Lyle Harrington, containing 
several papers by both editors. In prep- 
aration a large and elaborate treatise on 



Bridge Engineering, a joint book by Dr. 
Waddell and Mr. Harrington. 

The firm of Waddell & Harington has 
a very large practice in building bridges, 
giving special attention to movable struc- 
tures, besides doing important work in 
other lines. They have designed and 
patented a number of improvements on 
Dr. Waddell's old type of vertical lift 
bridge. This type is being adopted by 
a number of the leading railroad sys- 
tems of America, including the Harriman 
lines, Pennsylvana Railway, Iowa Cen- 
tral, Lake Shore & Michigan Southern, 
Missouri Pacific, Chicago & Northwest- 
ern, and Louisiana & Arkansas. They 
have in operation six vertical lifts, three 
more will be complete this year, and a 
dozen others are now being designed or 
constructed. Their work extends over 
the whole of the United States and parts 
of Canada, Mexico, Japan and New Zea- 
land. Some thirteen million dollars' 
worth of work is (December, 1911) being 
prosecuted through their office.

attention to problems of country life;

in country lies with women and that 
governments and collnlzatlon companies

sider well all problems of country wom- 
en if they wish to have agricultural 
prosperity, and hence national prosper- 
ity. The only true settlement, that Is 
homes, cannot be made without women,

tertainments, but her greatest pleasure 
is her home life and country occupation. 
Her garden work Is a continuous occupa- 
tion in the pleasant mild climate of Van- 
couver Island, and very beautiful results 
ensue; she believes that farm occupa- 
tions for women, poultry, dairying, 
market gardening, bulb growing, herb 
culture provide the most healthful 
means of earning livelihood and would 
like to see women farmers In all the 
suitable parts of Canada.
